WEEK AT A GLANCE

“And Mary said, my soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.” – Luke 1:46-47

2019-2020 ADMISSION SEASON

Admissions season for 2019-2020 is around the corner! Re-enrollment kicks off on February 1st and ends on February 22nd. Because it is critical for us to determine the openings available for siblings and new families, re-enrollment contracts received after February 22 will incur the $75.00 new student fee and those students will not be guaranteed placement in the fall. Per our school policy, students may not re-enroll if the parent has an account with the school over 60 days in arrears. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me. Thank you. – Chloe Knauer, Director of Advancement and Admission.

LOWER SCHOOL
………………..

Kindergarten had a wonderful time bringing holiday cheer to Meals on Wheels volunteers. As volunteers arrived to pick up the meals for delivery, we sang Christmas carols and gave them a small gift to show our appreciation. The Lower School children created 175 beautiful Christmas mats that will be given to the recipients of the meals. The Kindergarten teachers wanted the students to have the opportunity to recognize the volunteers as well as the recipients of Meals on Wheels. Ultimately, we want to raise all children to volunteer their time to make the world a better place!
